BIO
I studied photography both at the Royal Institute of Technology in Melbourne, Australia as well As Parsons School of Design in New York. For many years I focused on fashion photography, but in the fall of 2009, I decided to travel to Pakistan to pursue documentary work about women who had suffered brutal acid attacks. After years of struggling to find a voice within my work, I now realized that my passion as a photographer was to focus on women in struggling societies. In this field, I found my work to be engaging and potentially able to make an impact.
Images alone cannot change the world; they can bring attention to an issue and possibly initiate action. It is a form of activism - a catalyst for change - but the real change is in the hands of the viewers and the affected regions.
